MS Dhoni’s daughter Ziva loves bikes too

Like father, like daughter

MS Dhoni’s obsession for two-wheelers is already quite well-known. And his crazy collection of super bikes is every petrol-heads’ dream. With him putting constant updates on social media about his new bikes and giving us a peek into his collection, he sure has a huge fan following off the field as well. Remember the time he rode the Zimbabwean cops’ Kawasaki when he was on the ODI tour? If you thought that was badass, recently his wife Sakshi shared a picture on social media of their daughter Ziva sitting on one of Dhoni’s prized possessions- the Hellcat X132.

You know what they say- blood will always tell. Little Ziva’s surely growing up to be just like her father.

Here’s Dhoni’s envy inducing bike collection:

Confederate Hellcat X132

It’s probably the most famous bike in Dhoni’s garage and certainly his most expensive. But the Hellcat is more than just that. The 227 kg beast with a 2.2 litre engine gets its name from the legendary F6F fighter plane that saw action in World War 2 and its monstrous 132 horsepower capacity. What’s more mind-blowing is the fact that just 150 of these babies have ever been built and Dhoni is the only person in southeast Asia to own one.

Harley Davidson Fatboy

It’s one of the most common Harleys around and chances are, you’ve already spotted one on the streets. This classic beast is the favourite of any Harley lover and no garage is complete without a ‘fatboy’ standing on guard. So it’s no surprise that Dhoni has one too and takes it for a ride regularly.

Ducati 1098

This Italian beast is one of Dhoni’s favourite rides and he’s regularly seen taking it for a spin on city roads. So what makes it special, you ask? How about the fact that it can touch a topspeed of 279 Km/h and clocks 0-60 in less than 3.0 seconds?

Kawasaki Ninja H2

It’s the most recent addition to Dhoni’s garage and definitely one of his best. Think of the classic Ninja as probably the two-wheeled equivalent of Porsche’s 911. It’s the one bike Dhoni needed to make his collection more enviable than anyone else’s and now he has it. This beast features a ‘supercharged’ supersport engine and can touch a topspeed of around 400 Km/h.

Yamaha RD350

Before the Harleys and Ducatis roamed Indian streets, it was this 350cc beast from Yamaha that ruled the road. Every ’70s bike-enthusiast’s dream, the RD350 was also the bike that made Yamaha a name associated with speed in India. It’s one of the bikes that Dhoni’s restored one himself. A true testimony to this bike’s popularity is the fact that while it stopped production in the 70s, it continues to be in circulation.

Suzuki Shogun

Another bike that Dhoni’s been a proud owner of and one that he ‘badly wants to restore’. In his own words, Dhoni believes that this is one of the best 2-stroke, single cylinder bikes to ride. While it’s been out of circulation for some years now, proud owners like Dhoni remain quite adamant about not giving up on this 2-stroke beast.

Rajdoot

As always, we saved the best for the last. The reason why this bike is the most special in Dhoni’s garage is the fact that it was his first. And recently, Dhoni even took up a project to restore Ol’ Faithful himself. The king of classic bikes in India, any enthusiast will be able to recognize its unique sound from a mile away.
